Teachers’ CPD

We believe that heritage and culture can provide compelling learning experiences when embedded in curriculum planning and we want to support teachers to do this.

Many teachers who’ve brought their classes to Making a Mark programmes have taken away ideas to use in the classroom and have often been surprised by the heritage of their area and the resources available on their doorstep.

Early in the Summer Term we offer planning workshops where you can bring your topic plans for the next school year and we will help you identify how museum programmes can help bring them to life.

Our museums can provide inspiring settings for meetings and Professional Development. Partner museums are happy to offer you a FREE room for your school and will provide a short presentation and/or a museum tour for FREE as part of your day. Please contact Education Officers at each museum who can help arrange the details.

Upcoming twilight sessions

Across the year we offer a small number of FREE twilight sessions to highlight some of the ways in which our resources can be used to meet priority areas in the curriculum.
